Major League Baseball released their Statcast bat tracking data this month, providing a deeper dive into the swing of each hitter. I took my first look at this data last week in Statcast Heroes.
This week, I wanted to look at how each hitter on the Pittsburgh Pirates have changed since the data became publicly available.
I’ll also dive into the differences in hitter’s counts versus pitcher’s counts, and take an early look at Nick Gonzales.
SWING CHANGES SINCE STATCAST EXPANSION
It’s been over a week since the first public Statcast bat data has been released.
